It is with a heavy heart that we announce we will no longer be updating Aotg.com. Back in 2007, when we started, there was a lack of access to information about film, television, and commercial editing. We wanted to fix that by creating a central location for content about editing to be stored.
Since then, we've watched the amount of content about editing on the internet grow exponentially. We've also watched social media tools come and go with that growth. Does anyone remember Google Wave!? These social media tools changed how people access and search for media and information. People tend to turn to Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram for their news and information, and those are all great tools to promote your sites, but as a site that aggregates links to other sites for users, it just doesn't work for us.
We will keep the site live but archive the ability to add links and comments. We will keep our database live with the links for those who desire to use it to search for editing information and research.
Our podcast, The Cutting Room, will move over to the Filmmakeru.com website and will continue to be a place for interviews with editors and other film professionals.
Everyone who worked for Aotg.com loved what we created and are proud that we could help so many editors find content that spoke to them.
I look forward to seeing everyone at the various post events worldwide in the coming years!
Yours truly,
Gordon Burkell

The V-Ray FrameBuffer allows you to load the various render passes which can be handy to see the initial rendered output for comparison. If however you are using Arnold, this would be a missed feature inside the Maya Render view window.

We all have our own way to handle language versioning, some may be more effective than others, but the fact remains that if you have a commercial spot with 10 shots that needs to be rendered with four different languages, simple math states that there will be 40 versions.

When you install the After Effects CC (12.1) update, the application will use default settings for preferences, workspaces, output module templates, render settings templates, interpretation rules, and compositions settings templates. The After Effects CC (12.0) settings that you may have modified are still on your computer, though. You can manually copy them to the correct place for After Effects CC (12.1) to use them, as long as you are also careful to change the version number in the fil...

As an editor, I’ve never been totally satisfied with native NLE titling tools. Sure, they’re great for down and dirty lower thirds, but I always end up wanting to animate certain elements of a line of text or some graphics using a dedicated titler or motion graphics package. Using Premiere Pro, you can use dynamic link to get material from After Effects into Premiere Pro. Why not? After Effects is the single greatest tool for creating dynamic titles and motion graphics. Most people looki...

Here at fxguide we like to celebrate not only effects-heavy tentpole films and productions, but also those with ‘invisible’ visual effects work. Some recent productions of that elk include Captain Phillips, Kick-Ass 2, Katy Perry’s Roar music video and the TV show Orphan Black. Check out below how the visual effects in each were achieved.
